- world peace- banishment of the Harper government for some kinder gentler regime (I know not what in this bleak bleak land)- failing all of that, an income for everyone which covers a basic cost of living

(b) selfishly speaking:

- Denise needles- a lottery win for my work group pool (but then again, I haven't checked any of our December tickets...)- a trip to England and Scotland

(c) what I've actually received for Christmas/New Years (partly because me and partner have decided to give gifts all year...) or what my household has received:

- fabulous drapes- Blundstone boots- a new winter coat- a leather bag (advance nameday gift from my mother)- a surprise gift at my staff holiday party today from my former articling principal/current colleague: a t-shirt stating that "I took up knitting to keep me out of trouble"

Your hostess

Knitting booboos got you down?

How red was my Valley?

About me

BlurbKristina Brouhaha is a craft-daft hyphenated canadian boygirl who lives and crafts next to a forest in central Toronto (hence a high percentage of tree pics) with Aphrodite, Daisy and Quack and their love child Bubbles.

She also shares her space with the ever patient JJ, who is very fortunate indeed to be privy to her general fabulousness, but also has to put up with her many foibles, short attention span and vehement assertions on just about every topic (she has been known as an opinionated type-A person since... well...)

"In the further alternative, I submit that the household's 'early bedtime' policy constitutes age discrimination and as such violates my rights under s.15 of the Charter. Consequently..."

In exchange, she benefits tremendously from such Scottish wisdoms as "Why are you wandering around like a fart in a trance?" and "No mirrors in his/her hoose, eh?".

KB can only hope that her various partners in crime don't end up fleeing for fear of suffocation by the ever-burgeoning Handmaiden silk stash, some of which is featured on her Ravelry page (where she finally changed her moniker to Brouhaha, just to be consistent).
